Preparation

Before targeting an application that uses the Python interface script:

  • Install required software.

  • Set up a target system administrator.

Installing required software

Ensure that the following are installed on all Bravura Security Fabric servers:

  • Python 3.11.2+

  • Any required Python modules

Note

Ensure that Python is installed for all users. Python installs in the context of the current user by default. You must choose to do a custom install, then select "all users" when the selection becomes available. This will allow the Bravura Security Fabric service user (psadmin) account to have appropriate access to the Python installation.

It is recommended to add Python to the system PATH. This may also be added by selecting the option for "Add Python 3.11 to PATH" during the Python installation.

Configuring a target system administrator

In some cases, Bravura Security Fabric uses a designated account (for example, psadmin) with a Python scripted application.

Ensure that the designated account can log into the application from the Bravura Security Fabric server, and that the account has the necessary privileges.

Ensure that you set and note the account’s password. You will be required to enter the login ID and password when you add the target system to Bravura Security Fabric .

Otherwise, when a designated account is not required, the administrator credentials can be left blank.
